    Tiger Soul Research Institute’s sub-base.


    After breakfast, Feng Qi and Lin Ran arrived at Spell Laboratory 3 as usual.


    He followed Lin Ran to the spell array device and began to observe Lin Ran’s operation.


    During this period, he had a better understanding of spell research.


    He also understood how terrifying Lin Ran’s talent in this aspect was.


    There were many known Spiritual Qi attributes now.


    In addition to the Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth Spiritual Qi attributes, which were discovered earliest, there were also Wind, Thunder, Darkness, Light, Nature, Blood, and more. There were already more than 200 types of Spiritual Qi attributes that had been discovered.


    Among them, there were still more than 20 unnamed attributes of Spiritual Qi. As for the Spirit Qi attributes that had not been discovered, there were countless types.


    The plethora of Spirit Qi attributes was also an important reason why there were so many races in the domain world. Furthermore, each race had its unique abilities and talents.


    For example, the domain creatures that lived in the Water Spiritual Qi world. They hade into contact with Water Spiritual Qi all year round. Under the nourishment of Water Spiritual Qi, they gradually grasped the ability to control the water element.


    Along with the inheritance, this ability was imprinted in their bloodline.


    Newborns were born with the talent to control the Water element.


    Compared to domain races, human development was a little toote.


    Spiritual Qi had only appeared in the human world for more than 500 years Under the nourishment of Spiritual Qi, the physique of humans was indeed stronger every generation.


    However,pared to the domain race that had umted for a long time, this growth speed could not make up for the difference.


    The importance of spells and cultivation techniques was also disyed at this moment.


    If the study of cultivation techniques involved a deep exploration of the human body’s structure and mysteries, spell technique delved deeply into the attributes of the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth.


    There was no difference in the research of cultivation techniques and spells.


    However, for the current human civilization, cultivation techniques that could elerate human physical fitness were clearly more important.


    In terms of difficulty, researching spells was no easier than researching cultivation techniques.


    The core of spell research was to arrange andbine different Spiritual Qi attributes to produce the corresponding effect.


    The process wasplex.


    To create a spell, the prerequisite was that the spell researcher had a strong perception of the Spiritual Qi attribute.


    This perception had a professional term in the field of spell research, also known as Spiritual Qi affinity.


    If a spell researchercked Spiritual Qi affinity, it would be akin to color blindness in humans. Distinguishing the attributes of Spiritual Qi, let alone the subsequent arrangement andbination, would prove challenging.


    Only with a strong affinity for Spiritual Qi could a spell researcherbine theplicated Spiritual Qi attributes to form a spell they wanted.


    This threshold stopped arge number of talents who wanted to participate in the research of spells.


    One of Lin Ran’s amazing talents in spell research was his near-perfect elemental affinity.


    Without the help of any equipment, he could clearly distinguish every element.


    Simrly, using vision as an example.


    If spell researchers without Spiritual Qi affinity could be likened to those who are color-blind or color-weak, then individuals with exceptional Spiritual Qi affinity like Lin Ran could be seen as possessing super vision.


    In creative research, talent always came first.


    Although hard work could close the distance between them and his talent, the gap between them could not be made up for with hard work.


    Some people had solid theories, but if they couldn’t pass the Spiritual Qi affinity test, they wouldn’t be able to continue on the path of spell research.


    Lin Ran was born with a unique advantage in spell research.


    But this was only one of Lin Ran’s talents in spell research.


    The second problem in spell research was how to arrange andbine Spiritual Qi.


    This step was the key to creating a spell.


    The arrangement andbination of different elemental attributes could produce many interesting characteristics.


    For example, the attribute arrangement andbination of an ordinary “Water Ball Technique” did not only require Water Spiritual Qi but also other Spiritual Qi to help release it.


    This was somewhat simr to the five elements described in ancient books.


    When Water Spiritual Qi fused with a Spiritual Qi of another attribute, its power would increase greatly.


    However,pared to the theory that the five elementsplemented and countered each other, there were morebinations in the research of spells in reality. It could even be described as endless.


    In this aspect, every spell researcher was a pathfinder.


    The knowledge umted by predecessors was limited. They could only use their sharp insight and creativity to try the arrangement of variousbinations.


    Lin Ran was also extremely talented in this aspect.


    He was like an architect.


    Relying on his super Spiritual Qi affinity, Lin Ran could clearly sense the detailed effects of every Spiritual Qi attribute.


    Coupled with his creativity, it was like building a house. He mixed all kinds of elemental attributes into one and formed a spell that he wanted.


    This talent was associated with creativity and insight.


    The power and effect of the spell createdpletely depended on the researcher’s ability and talent.


    The third threshold for a spell researcher was the trajectory of the spell.


    Consciousness was the needle, weaving through myriad principles.


    These words were the core content of the spell trajectory.


    During the process of casting the spell, one’s consciousness was like a needle that kept wandering through the Spiritual Qi particles in the air, connecting all the Spiritual Qi needed ording to the arrangement.


    In the second phase, the arrangement andbination of spells only finalize the overall structure of the spell..
